Artist Commentary: "Sea Change" means a profound and notable transformation and if 2020 wasn't that, I don't know what was. I was traveling across the United States in our RV, painting the beautiful landscapes along the way. It was stunning and I had created a file of photos I wanted to paint, more than I knew I ever would find the time to actually get on a canvas. Right as I was beginning to paint some birch trees and put my vine charcoal to paper to lay down the big shapes, I had a real yearning for the ocean. So in this beautiful but landlocked area of America. I started drawing from my minds' eye and what emerged was "Sea Change."

Artist Commentary: I love the magnificent rock outcroppings along the California coast line. My five minute ‘stretch-my-legs’ Break as I made my way from Northern to Southern California turned into a 30 minute visual exploration with hundreds of photos. So worth it!

Artist Commentary: I love a BIG wave!!! I've stood dangerously close to the edge of the sea this day, taking photos of the big waves crash among the rocks. I remember my husband yelling for me to step back this day and I while I did take baby steps back, I kept creeping forward. By the end of my photo session, I was soaking wet and it was worth it!

Artist Commentary: "Twist and Shout" is my first painting of 2021! I love starting the year with a wave painting and I am so grateful to be in California for the winter and not in New England. I spend hours at the beach every week and the waves recently have been spectacular!

Artist Commentary: I'm an avid wave watcher. I prefer a sunny day with light wind but I've been known to watch waves crash during a hot mess of a storm. For this painting, however, I got my sunny day. There was a series of these small waves approaching the shore, each one crashing in on itself. This went on for the entire hour I sat watching them. Each set of waves looked like tiny dancers and 'Pirouette" seemed like an appropriate title. This is a professionally framed piece.

Artist Commentary: **This painting is professionally framed in a 2" warm silver frame with conservation glass and backing** “Blues Traveler” was a really fun painting for me. I loved working with shades of warm and cool blues in the water as well as chasing the light and working the shadows of the rocks. If you zoom in you will see that the rocks in shadow are different values of purple, blues and greens (no browns!) and the sunlit rocks are all warm crimsons and rusts.

Artist Commentary: I have been exploring several new subjects recently and I'm enjoying learning the intricacies of each. I set up a piece of paper on my easel and was preparing to sketch out the next painting in a series I'm working on. But, once again, the ocean pulled me back and that's how what should have been a still life of tangerines became 'March Madness' instead.
